SLIDE 2

Recapture a bike’s moving energy with low tech regenerative braking

Riding bike – lots

  • f kinetic –

moving energy Brake and stop the bike

+

  • Moving energy captured

in elastic system or ultra capacitor Bike powered back up to speed with no effort…

SLIDE 3

Design and prototype the first slick marketable regenerative braking system for bicycles

Its not crazy - other people are playing with this idea Who would ride that! V’s

Lets form a team and be the first to do it properly…

  • Engineer to help design the system
  • Industrial designer to make sure it is functional and looks great
  • Branding and marketing now or later…
